The onset of COVID-19 and the ongoing pandemic caused the postponement and cancellation of some of our much-loved fundraising events. However, every cloud has a silver lining, and the pandemic and restrictions it brought proved no obstacle for some of our brilliant fundraisers who came up with innovative and clever ways to fundraise for MS Ireland. We have been blown away by the creativity and determination of our supporters who thought of new ways to raise vital funds for MS Ireland.
MS Research is a bi-annual research eZine. In each edition we will be sharing the latest updates from scientific and social MS research, from here in Ireland and internationally.
Due to the impact of COVID-19 we had to change the way we do things and adapt some of our services by moving them online. Christine is living with MS and avails of MS Ireland's services, here she tells how she adapted to our new way of doing things, and the benefits of taking part in our online classes.
A recently published study has shown promise for a potential vaccine for Multiple Sclerosis.
There are a number of social based events run on a regional basis by MS Ireland. These events give participants the opportunity to meet in a more informal setting and have the opportunity to chat with each other about MS or just life in general. Often a great way for people with MS to meet others for the first time who may be in a similar situation as themselves. Some events are on hold for now because of Covid restrictions but others are running online.
Events may vary from region to region so check in with your own regional office to see what might be going on.
These are group events/ programmes that have an informative, educational, supportive or therapeutic effect. These are a great way to learn more about MS, meet other people and pick up tips and hints from others. We provide a range of programmes including newly diagnosed seminars, support groups, symptom management sessions and other information and professional advice programmes. These are run for people with MS, carers, families and health professionals.
Do you have questions about COVID-19 and MS? Would you like to learn more about the current vaccines and their suitability for people living with MS?
Join the virtual event on Monday, 15th February at 6pm
